From 4/27/23 to 5/4/23:
44,260 tests (6,323/day average)
2,978 positive (6.73% positive) (State of Ohio numbers, posted once per week on Thursday)

Percent positive (Ohio) for the week is down .36% from what it was last week (which was an estimate).

*Ohio COVID-19 Dashboard reported 944,260 new tests for the week (ridiculous number, an obvious error).
(I used 44,260 in my calculations, a number in line with the recent trend.)

6.18% positive in Cuyahoga County (for the 7-day period ending Sunday, 4/30/23). (Down .54% from what it was the week before.)

Both websites that I've cited for the COVID numbers are no longer reporting the weekly data.
Hence, I will no longer be posting updates.
